I put mine on like this:

Go over it twice . First with the einbock then at 45 degrees to first pass with rolls. Can’t see the point of throwing the seed behind the harrows.

What like are these for sowing smaller acreages? 30 ish a year
While we are on the subject I remember you reseeded some in the backend with a vaderstad? I did some also.

How yours looking? Mines a failure. Looked fine till that severe wet, frosty period in January. Will get some pictures going back to try and stitch in some seed with grass harrow when it warms up and some moisture.

We've a browns harrow with a proper stocks turbo jet on top it's grand for seeding grass/kale etc on proper cultivated ground or very poached stuff . The tines are thicker than most of these harrows.
The spinner will be fine for the job I'm not sure it's in the right place to put seed into the tines but to be fair when I'm sowing I just tickle with the back row of tines and let the roller push it in

Yes I did. Jury is still out! It got top dressed today. It is hard to say because of all the barley that's present but I am quietly confident. The barley was not sprayed off which I think would have help as there is a bit of annual meadow grass and Yorkshire fog but hopefully it will get out competed? I will get some pictures
